They still mostly rely on existing functionality, and I wouldn't

primitives, which of course will break with next update.
HTML5 is an adopted agreed upon standard with backwards
compatible enhancements that works cross platform.
Yet, web 2.0 technologies have only rudimentary notion of
backward compatibility, all it breaks routinely.
